Funds participating in oncycle so far
To help everyone see visibility in the firms interviewing in oncycle so far known:
- Carlyle
- TPG (Capital/Growth)
- KKR
- Bain Capital (anyone know which Fund?)
- Apollo (Hybrid value?)
- Apax
- AEA
- Veritas
- Warburg
- BC Partners
- Maple capital
- Centerbridge
Anymore? Seems like mostly other MM
Seems like there are much less funds than usual? Not surprising given how ridiculously early it is
Which groups for carlyle/kkr? Or is it all of them?
Carlyle Special Sits finished. I heard Carlyle tech has too but not in my domain so grain of salt and w/e
do you know if KKR special sits finished?
Are you sure Carlyle sits finished?
Advent and BX also interviewed
Are you sure about BX? Thought they are holding off
Veritas did not go off I believe
Silver Point is finished.
Apollo Hybrid is done and buyout.
Did anyone get Silver Point ?
Anyone got info on Lindsay, GTCR, HIG, American securities
LG has given out some offers and AmSec had interviews
Can someone tell me wtf Maple Capital is

bump
Bain cap is NAPE. Are we sure about warburg?
To be honest... besides a few of these names seems like a lot of B-tier (in terms of PE) firms trying to get the A-tier kids
Agreed
TPG
Is TPG done?
Not sure about other groups but growth yes
Are things slow today or just me?
It's a Saturday
And… had one this morning but wondering if things are still live.
Lindsay Goldberg has extended offers
Lmfao wow
I find it so funny that people are asking what maple capital is. Goes to show how many people just want to work at the firms that people outside of finance know the name of and don’t even know what insiders view as the best places to work with the highest comp. Maple obviously smaller, but some of the best returns in both distressed debt and PE buyouts. Not surprised they went so early this year
Don't you think that's also the issue with early recruiting - like I knew I wanted buyout but genuinely didn't why I wanted certain firms because I didn't have enough exposure so I didn't participate in oncycle I didn't want to look like a retard. Like yea sure it it would be nice to be at your KKR for the prestige etc but like, but like that’s legit the only reason
Completely agree..
Is this some kind of joke that’s going over my head? It’s a 1.5bn AUM firm started in 2004… how good can they possibly be
The one that people are referring to and is going oncycle (but very small process and hard to get into) does not have a website
Growth is slower when ur larger
Just because we don’t know it doesn’t mean we wouldn’t want to work there. I genuinely have never heard of it. There’s no website, and I’ve searched everywhere for 13F’s and LinkedIn to learn something about the firm but there’s nothing to be found… Only thing that keeps popping up is some fund in VT (ew) or a VC fund in Israel
I work in secondaries so have bought and priced literally hundreds of funds, from absolute garbage to top tier names. I have never heard of Maple Capital. Kind of funny to see it on this list.
LPs never sell their stakes in maple capital, that’s why
Was lucky enough to have the opportunity to interview with two Associates there last night…intense experience to say the least, but they actually mentioned something that might shed some light on this-maple's LP agreements don't allow stake sales except back to the GPs. they've always been very selective about the outside capital they accept (>2Bn/>50% of the latest fund is their own money) because they're very focused on finding highly aligned long-term partners. Thought that was unique. Not unlike the Baupost glory days of '00-'12 in that philosophy
.
Stop trying to push your firm my man, “top returns in Distress” literally have never heard of these guys or seen them on a deal lol.
There are a ton of shitty MM funds that won't be here in 10 years.
Of course no one has heard of all of them... Can only guess you work there and that's why you posted.
What’s everyone’s read on the situation? Had a couple interviews but struck out now radio silence.

Everyone’s obviously different depending on circumstances among other things, but my firm has a 3 year analyst program. Told HH I’d like to recruit during next year’s on-cycle (Summer 2026 start), and they were understanding and supportive.
Gives me a year to really figure out what I want to do in terms of next steps, as well as see if IB is something I can tolerate beyond an analyst stint (something I’m open to at the moment).
Warburg isn’t until tomorrow or Monday HH told me
Heard maple took their top recruits
Does this mean invites are out?
Can’t confirm if they have started the actual interview process yet, but received info on positions at Digitalbridge and Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners.
What type of bank/group are you at
EB coverage
are those really spots you want to end up at though? Never really hear much about MSIP on the infra side of things
Nah, personally I need more time to know what I want to do with my life post banking
also they're saying that base is "$120,000-170,000" for DB - does that seem low to anyone?
Also got these 2 positions. My logic was that the 120 was either just a low-range number if someone decided to join a year early, or their CoL adjusted rate for someone recruiting to the FL office as opposed to NY. But those are both just guesses.
Is Maple already done? Been prepping for them for like a year now…
so disappointed man, the associate there guaranteed me an interview but then last second had filled up all their spots by the time I showed up to the office (yes I took a plane to go to Vermont)
What is Maple Capital?
If you are one of the users taking the construct of Maple Capital seriously, please excuse yourself from recruiting.
Oaktree (not flagship, their 2 other strategies… special sits and something else)
"Maple is Paradise" post should be coming any day now
The alarm goes off, and you roll out of bed with a huge grin, knowing that your firm isn’t named after inferior tree species like Oak or Pine. The CAD exchange rate is at an all-time high as you empty the syrup bottle onto your stack of pancakes, wistfully thinking about hockey season. Maple is paradise.
Did H&F participate?
Would like some insights on this. Know they gave out interview invites day 1 and kept interviewing day 2, but have absolutely no idea of they went pencils down or if offers were given out.
